175206 - nullplugin should remember if user has clicked cancel for the same mimetype earlier

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 83754

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Rune Frøysa]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

If the user earlier in the same browser-session has clicked cancel in a "click
here to download plugin" dialog, Mozilla should not pop-up a new request for the
same mimetype, atleast not within the same browser session.

I guess this can be implemented by making
modules/plugin/samples/default/unix/nullplugin.c contain a hash of all mimetypes
that it has displayed dialogs for, and check for this early in makeWidget()

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Enter any page that contains a ref. to a mimetype that requires a plugin that
is not installed
2.click cancel on the download dialog
3.re-enter the page

Actual Results:  
The dialog reappares

Expected Results:  
It should have remembered that I didn't want the plugin.
